Star Wars Original Trilogy Coming to DVD...
Well all I can say is ABOUT DAMN TIME! I have been waiting since I was about knee-high to a grasshopper to get the originals on DVD. My wish has been granted. Looks like Lucas finally caved in to the masses of Star Wars fans wanting to relive their childhood in the comfort of their homes with their big-screen TV's.
"In response to overwhelming demand, Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release attractively priced individual two-disc releases of Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Each release includes the 2004 digitally remastered version of the movie and, as bonus material, the theatrical edition of the film. That means you'll be able to enjoy Star Wars as it first appeared in 1977, Empire in 1980, and Jedi in 1983.
This release will only be available for a limited time: from September 12th to December 31st. International release will follow on or about the same day. Each original theatrical version will feature Dolby 2.0 Surround sound, close-captioning, and subtitles in English, French and Spanish for their U.S. release. International sound and subtitling vary by territory."
